It’s 1989, and we meet nine-year-old Sheldon Cooper, the beloved character from THE BIG BANG THEORY, who has skipped four grades to start high school alongside his less-intellectual older brother. We get a peek into the formative years, with voiceover from Jim Parsons as adult Sheldon, of a scientific genius who is misunderstood by his family, classmates and neighbors. His mother preps him with what she thinks is the only tool he’ll need to survive at his new school: remind bullies that his dad’s the football coach and his brother plays on the team. His twin sister, who’s happy to stay in fourth grade, has a better sense of what awaits Sheldon than he does. Young Sheldon may understand Newtonian physics, but his blue-collar, church-going family only cares if that knowledge will help them win a football game.

During these three pivotal periods, Alex always manages to find a way to move forward, handling key moments with determination, emotion and humor.

Yeah I feel the same tbh. Last season has soured me somewhat on the US version.

Regards the Aussie version, hated seeing the ones that were voted out this week go. There's only one person left who the audience can really root for (Jericho). The others are all either quite dislikeable, annoying or have played a rubbish game. I swear if Locky ends up winning this and they try and paint him like a hero I am going to be raging, he's been a jerk so many times.

One man should not have this much power in this game. Luckily I'm not an ordinary man."economically unviable"-Oblomov Boblomov

Once you get past "Oh the Agent's a kitty!" it's actually dark as strawberry float. Serious issues being highlight (although luckily it keeps the comedy element of 'dark comedy'...brutal in places though)

Others may disagree but I think late season 2 is both the best the show has ever been and the darkest it's ever been.

That episode with the acid trip was completely strawberry floated up but revealed a lot about the reasons why Bojack is the way he is, while still keeping the comedy.
